  Hope they strip him of his licence. I’m not a doctor but an part of a regulatory body. If I said something out of line with most guidance and other people, I’d have to have pretty strong evidence backed up by at least one but sometimes two independent reviewers. If it was just a hunch I’d be stripped of my title so fast. This is in a field which does not directly impact peoples health or risk to life so really hope they throw the book at him

  Why have anti-vax, climate change denial, anti-LGBT and anti-migrant all become packaged up into a single policy platform?

    Because if you are stupid enough to believe one, you are stupid enough to believe them all.

    For the first three, it’s scientific illiteracy and dunning-kruger. The last one is just moral bankruptcy.
